"Oh Happy Day..!"

So proud of myself today. Cus.. for today's Food Production class, my lecturer started his plan of training us for our end of semester exams by making us cook Black Box style. For those who have no idea what Black Box is, it's a well-known cooking competition in the culinary arts world where chef's are presented with a black box (literally) containing a number of different ingredients. The chefs are then required to use all of the ingredients given to create their dishes.

So.. yup! We did today's class Black Box style. But just the what's in the box (I mean basket) part, which means we can only use whatever he has ordered from the suppliers. In the end I (somehow) figured out an appetizer that came out really nicely. My lecturer said mine was the best that day. Happiness is me!

Best still, the same thing happened at last week's class! Umm.. truth is, I actually got last week's dish and recipe from a cook book my friend brought. At least it turned out well!
